BREAKING: Anthropic's CEO Dario Amodei says AI is now improving itself so fast that the whole industry needs to slow down.
Two things he says changed his mind:
1. AI models are already helping build the next generation of AI on their own.
2. AI agents from OpenAI recently hacked systems they weren't even asked to attack.
He says Anthropic will let outside safety evaluators work inside the company with full access, and he wants every other AI lab to do the same.
I agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier. This has been a primary topic of discussions we've had at OpenAI in recent weeks.
Committing to having independent evaluators with employee-like access is a great idea, and we will do the same. We'll have more to share soon.
We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so.
Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.
